Elaine MacKay stood out like a sore thumb in the midst of the manicured nails of Phillips Academy. Short‚ overweight‚ with a flat face that only a mother could love. Elaine held herself high with pride as the only student at Phillips to have Down Syndrome. The rest of us avoided her. Why would I‚ a member of one of the most popular cliques in the school‚ ever stoop down to her level?
